KEATON COLLABORATION

Here it is: the many reasons I prefer shopping in Dublin than in NYC. Most people would be shocked to hear that, but it's true. Now, hear me out. You may feel the same after reading this short post. All of these stores are within a half mile of each other. American Apparel Lush H&M Flagship Store Bridal Boutiques (de Stafford bridal and Aspirations Bridal, for examples) Souvenir Shops (Carrolls) Starbucks Patagonia Outlet Laduree  Abercrombie & Fitch (almost as fancy as their London store) Birkenstock The Loft Jewellers Tiffany & Co. Kiehl's MAC Cosmetics Aldo The Body Shop Lacoste Hilfiger Denim Everything from coffee to luxury shopping is located in the city center of Dublin. There is no shortage of restaurants, shopping, and beautiful buildings here. It may seem strange to come to Ireland and make a point to shop your heart out, but I'll admit I never intended to do that. It was just so perfect to get gift...

Ladies, this past weekend I found a gem in the back of my closet. I've had it for a couple years now and I think I've only worn it once. Annnnnd here it is: This is a model. Not me or my picture. Cute, right? Well it is I SWEAR.. this picture just doesn't do it justice. Maybe that's why even though I moved to a different state (where it is much warmer and my closet is much bigger) I haven't worn it in years. I don't even know what made me try it on. It fit too tightly the last time I wore it and nothing special happened that day so I suppose I don't associate the dress with being that great. Oh, but it is. Please don't mind my princess act.. my hair is just so long and the wind here in Oklahoma City is NO JOKE.  So back to why our favorite clothes go unworn; we just don't give our clothes enough credit. Simply put, our bodies and style are constantly changing. Pull out those shirts that just didn't fit right a...

I'm a traveler inside and out. There's not much more exciting than discovering a new place to go. One of my favorites: NYC I also happen to love shopping. How original, huh? Well… I can tell you some of my favorite shops are in Manhattan. The most popular shops ranging from 5th Avenue to 40th - 57th St. They have just about everything there. (High-end, designer stores like Chanel to more affordable stores like H&M) I recommend checking out Herald Square by Grand Central Station. Also, the majority of my unique pieces were found in the SoHo area where you'll find stores that aren't in a regular city. If you're like me and plan on spending a good amount of your time in NYC emptying out your bank account I suggest creating a shopping plan as the city can be overwhelming. Happy shopping!
